Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
2 ¼ - 2½ cups vanilla or unflavored almond milk or preferred milk (see notes)
1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla) sub with higher protein plant-based yogurt for a dairy-free option
3 tablespoons Instant Jell-O Pistachio Pudding Mix
3 tablespoons chia seeds
2 scoops vanilla or unflavored protein powder optional
1 teaspoon honey or more, taste test after refrigeration
Toppings: crushed pistachios, whipped cream, sliced bananas or mixed berries, dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

Add all base ingredients to a large airtight container or bowl. Whisk everything together until smooth and well-combined.
Refrigerate in an airtight container for at least 4 hours.
Separate into three bowls or jars for easy, grab-and-go breakfasts. Top with crushed pistachios, banana slices (best if added on the day of consumption), dark chocolate chips, and whipped cream. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

Adjust honey based on your sweetness preferences. Flavored yogurt and vanilla protein powder add sweetness. If omitted, this recipe may need more honey or your preferred sweetener.
This recipe has about 20 grams of protein without protein powder with pistachios as a topping. To increase the protein content without protein powder, sub the almond milk with Fairlife or skim milk.
Note: This recipe was tested with almond milk. Cow's milk will result in a thicker consistency so I would recommend adding more after refrigeration or 1/2 cup extra when making the base. Adjust the flavor profile by adding more pudding mix / liquid as needed.
